The Defence of Outpost Snipe in Egypt, took place in the Second Battle of El Alamein, part of the Western Desert campaign during the Second World War. On the night of 26/27 October 1942, the 2nd Battalion of the Rifle Brigade (part of the 7th Motor Brigade), with thirteen 6-pounder anti-tank guns and the 239th Battery, 76th (Royal Welch Fusiliers) Anti-Tank Regiment, Royal Artillery, with six more 6-pounders, was ordered to occupy a desert feature known as Snipe, a small depression in the landscape 1.5 mi (2.4 km) south-west of Kidney Ridge that was suitable for an outpost.

  • 스나이프 전초지 방어전(Defence of Outpost Snipe)은 1942년 10월 26일부터 10월 27일까지 제2차 세계 대전의 서부 사막 전역에서 일어난 전투로 제2차 엘 알라메인 전투의 일부로 진행되었다. 스나이프 전초지는 연합국 군대가 엘 알라메인 인근에 설정한 방어선이었다. 연합국 군대가 이집트에서 리비아로 진격하기 위해서는 이 곳을 방어해야 했다. 영국을 중심으로 한 연합국 군대는 치열한 전투 끝에 독일, 이탈리아를 중심으로 한 추축국 군대를 물리쳤다. (ko)
